Does unchecking "Exact Match" work?

[Tamar Granor]

Has anyone had any success at filtering a search with the Match anywhere checkbox unchecked? I just tested a really simple case. I searched a project for a variable I knew was declared local in the project. Got results.

Then, in the Filter Builder, in the Within Same Statement textbox, I specified:

local

and applied. Got filtered down to the matches that are local declarations. Then, I went back into the Filter Builder and unchecked Match anywhere. Hit Apply and I get no matches at all.

In fact, every filter I've tried with that box unchecked returns no results. Am I misunderstanding what it's meant to do or have I found a bug?

P.S. Sorry, Jim, this is what happens when I'm writing about something.

Exact match is not a filter, it is part of search criteria.  (Yeah, that's not clear, is it!)

Search criteria appear up near and around the GoFish button and only apply when you search again.

The filters for a search appear above the grid and apply to the most recent search.

I mistitled this thread. I'm not talking about "Exact Match" for the search criteria, but about "Match Anywhere" in the Filter Builder. I'm going to repost with a correct title.

Folks, DO NOT REPLY ON THIS THREAD.
